Despite a disappointment, a good price for George Henry Mason
This work of art by George Henry Mason could be acquired at Bonhams in New York in July 2020 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Fine Chinese Paintings and Works of Art auction, the work Eleven Plates from the 1804 series 'the Costumes of China' changed hands for USD 892.50 (€ 758.03) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 1,200.00 – 1,500.00. Despite this disappointing result, Eleven Plates from the 1804 series 'the Costumes of China' is the most expensive artwork by George Henry Mason that we have observed at auction so far.
